Transferring Blocks from LibreCAD to QCAD

Post by ianmacaskill » Mon Jul 19, 2021 5:33 pm

Well, it is a challenge getting back to CAD. I have been retired 11 years and my previous experience was with MicroStation. After a long break, now getting back and have chosen QCAD. Have acquired QCAD Professional and purchased the book "An Introduction to Computer-Aided Design" The learning curve will not be too steep but I will need to adjust from what I became accustomed to, working MicroStation. I look forward to assistance through the QCAD Forum. My first question: Can I copy or transfer Blocks I created in LibreCAD, (which I tried before choosing QCAD professional) to QCAD? My operating system is Windows10 Home.

Yes, you can open or import a drawing with blocks created in LibreCad in QCAD. Then you can further process them as desired depending on your drawing goals.
Work smart, not hard: QCad Pro
Win10/64, QcadPro, QcadCam version: Current.
If a thread is considered as "solved" please change the title of the first post to "[solved] Title..."
